FOR ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we strongly recommend the fi tting of a Photo Electric PE Beam. In most countries PE Beams are mandatory on all garage doors fi tted with automatic openers. For a small additional outlay Automatic Technology recommends that PE Beams be

installed with the GDO-8 Shed Master ® ensuring additional safety and peace of mind.

DO NOT operate the GDO-8 Shed Master ® unless the garage door is in full view and free from objects such as cars and children/people. Make

sure that the door has fi nished moving before entering or leaving the garage.

DO NOT operate the GDO-8 Shed Master ® when children/people are near the door. Children must be supervised near the garage door at all times when the GDO-8 Shed Master ® is in use. Serious personal injury and/or property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.

DO NOT allow children to operate the GDO-8 Shed Master ® . Serious personal injury and/or property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.

Regularly check to make sure that the safety obstruction force is working correctly, and is tested and set as per page 16 of this Manual. Failure to follow this could result in serious personal injury and/or property damage. This test must be repeated at regular intervals and the necessary adjustments made as required.Doors requiring over 400N of force to move must have PE Beams installed.

DO NOT disengage the GDO-8 Shed Master ® to manual operation with children/people or any other objects including motor vehicles within the doorway. Install the wall switch or wall mounted transmitter in a location where it is out of reach of children and the garage door is visible.

Owner Installation Instructions GDO-8 Shed Master® 5

The GDO-8 Shed Master ® is not intended for use by young children or infi rm people without adequate supervision. Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the remote transmitters or the

GDO-8 Shed Master ® .

Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the door and GDO-8 Shed Master ® at all times.

The unit is rated to IP24, however, it should be installed so that it is protected from the elements. Where possible it should not be exposed to water or rain. It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed

directly by a hose or other water carrying device.

The garage door must be well balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a qualifi ed garage door installer prior to installation of the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .

Frequently examine the installation, in particular cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault

in the installation or an incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO NOT attempt to repair the door yourself as hardware is under extreme tension.

Remove or disengage all garage door locks and mechanisms prior to installation of the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .

Connect the GDO-8 Shed Master ® to a properly earthed general purpose 240V mains power outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrical contractor. The

outlet (and GDO-8 Shed Master ® ) must be positioned so that it is easily accessible.

Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any repairs or removing covers. Only experienced service personnel

should remove covers from the GDO-8 Shed Master ® .

In order for the GDO-8 Shed Master ® to sense an object obstructing the door way, some force must be exerted on the

object. As a result the object, door and/or person may suffer damage or injury.

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an Automatic Technology service agent or suitably

qualifi ed person.

Make sure that the door is fully open before driving in or out of the garage and fully closed before

leaving the driveway.

Make sure that remote controls are kept out of reach of children.

OperationTo open or close the door simply press a button on a TrioCode™ transmitter, or optional wall switch for two seconds. During open and close cycles the door can be stopped by pressing the button again. The next actuation will move the door in the opposite direction.

TrioCode™ Code Hopping TechnologyEvery time a TrioCode™ transmitter is used, a new security code is randomly generated from over 4.29 billion possibilities. This greatly enhances the security of the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past

These transmitters also overcome interference issues by simultaneously sending a signal over three slightly different frequencies. Even if two of the three signals are jammed, the system will still work.

Security Code StoreThe GDO-8 Shed Master® Roll up Garage Door Opener uses revolutionary technology to securely store eight (8) different TrioCode™ transmitters in its memory.

Weatherproof DesignThe opener’s control board is housed in a weather-proof enclosure rated to IP24. This offers protection from rain and the elements. PLEASE NOTE - the unit should not be sprayed by a hose or any other water carrying device.

S-ALPS (Semi Automatic Limits Positioning System)The S-ALPS system does away with manual adjustment of the door’s limits position using mechanical parts, such as cams and microswitches. During installation the handheld transmitter can be programmed to set the limits positions.

Overload IndicatorWhen the maximum opening and closing capacity of the opener is exceeded an audible beeper will sound to indicate that an overload has occurred.

Owner Installation Instructions GDO-8 Shed Master® 7

ISS (Intelligent Safety Obstruction System)While the door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some manner, it will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before reversing is automatically adjusted by the doors control system during the initialisation of the automatic door opener. The door will also stop if restricted whilst opening. The Safety Obstruction Force should be checked at least once a month. See page 16 of this manual for instructions.

Lockable Control PanelThe control panel can be locked and disabled to prevent tampering. This is

useful if the opener is to be mounted on an exposed carport or a perimeter door. Locking the control panel will prevent operating the door via the Operate button,

re-profi ling the door, clearing limits, clearing transmitters, changing force margins, and coding transmitters.

Photo Electric (PE) Beam (optional)The opener has an input for a PE beam to be connected for extra safety protection.

Secure Light Module (optional)An external secure light module is available to connect to the GDO-8 Shed Master ® opener. The

light stays on for approximately four minutes after the operation of opener.

Manual OperationThe opener is equipped with a unique patented manual disengaging device. If the power to the opener is disrupted for any reason, the door can be put into manual mode by pulling down on the string handle, then releasing. This will allow you to manually open or close the door. When power is restored, by pulling down on the string handle and releasing, the opener is put back into automatic mode.

Security Lock For Manual Release Handle (optional)For added security the manual release handle can be locked out or disabled. This is ideal if the opener is to be mounted on a perimeter door in an exposed carport.

PE Beam And Final Setup13. Fitting the Photo Electric (PE) beam sensor (optional)Locate the PE Beam in a strategic location within doorway. Automatic Technology recommends 150mm above the fl oor level and as close as possible to the door opening, inside the garage. Connect the wires from the PE wiring harness as per Fig. 20.

NOTE: The wiring diagram is for an Automatic Technology Transmitter/Receiver type PE beam: model: PE-2 (Order Code 90214) with Wiring Harness (Order Code 01900).Make sure to align the beams correctly. Follow the manual supplied with the Photo Electric Beam.

WARNING: The location of the beam and manner in which it is installed might not give safety protection at all times. Check to make sure

that the height of the beam and type used give maximum protection possible.

External Secure Light Module (optional)External secure light can be connected to GDO-8 Shed Master ® as shown in Fig 21. The light stays on for three minutes after the operation of the door. The built in operate button can be used to open or close the door.

14. Manual releaseTo switch the opener to manual mode simply pull the red manual release handle down and release. To re-engage the opener repeat the above action (Fig. 22).

Note: The door may move uncontrollably if the spring tension is weak, not set properly or the door is unbalanced. If this occurs, do not use the door and contact your installer for service.

The manual release handle can be locked to prevent unwanted disengagement (where fi tted). This is useful if the opener is mounted on an exposed carport or perimeter door. To disable the manual release, turn the key clockwise to the locked position as indicated on the label. To enable, turn the key anti-clockwise.

15. Reset all factory defaults1. Turn power off.2. Press and hold Set button.3. Turn power on and continue holding Set until all

LED’s are off.

16. Re-initialising the openerTo re-initialise the opener press and hold the Set Button for two (2) seconds. The beeper will sound once. The door will start to move and re-calculate force margins. The door can move between the open and close limit positions up to four (4) times (depending on the position of the door and the power up condition). A single beep will be heard once the initialisation is complete. The door is now ready for use.
